Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility writes to the standard output three whitespace separated
|
|
fields for each input file.
|
|
These fields are a checksum
|
|
.Tn CRC ,
|
|
the total number of octets in the file and the file name.
|
|
If no file name is specified, the standard input is used and no file name
|
|
is written.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm sum
|
|
utility is identical to the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility, except that it defaults to using historic algorithm 1, as
|
|
described below.
|
|
It is provided for compatibility only.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fl o
|
|
Use historic algorithms instead of the (superior) default one.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Algorithm 1 is the algorithm used by historic
|
|
.Bx
|
|
systems as the
|
|
.Xr sum 1
|
|
algorithm and by historic
|
|
.At V
|
|
systems as the
|
|
.Xr sum 1
|
|
algorithm when using the
|
|
.Fl r
|
|
option.
|
|
This is a 16-bit checksum, with a right rotation before each addition;
|
|
overflow is discarded.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Algorithm 2 is the algorithm used by historic
|
|
.At V
|
|
systems as the
|
|
default
|
|
.Xr sum 1
|
|
algorithm.
|
|
This is a 32-bit checksum, and is defined as follows:
|
|
.Bd -unfilled -offset indent
|
|
s = sum of all bytes;
|
|
r = s % 2^16 + (s % 2^32) / 2^16;
|
|
cksum = (r % 2^16) + r / 2^16;
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Algorithm 3 is what is commonly called the
|
|
.Ql 32bit CRC
|
|
algorithm.
|
|
This is a 32-bit checksum.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Both algorithm 1 and 2 write to the standard output the same fields as
|
|
the default algorithm except that the size of the file in bytes is
|
|
replaced with the size of the file in blocks.
|
|
For historic reasons, the block size is 1024 for algorithm 1 and 512
|
|
for algorithm 2.
|
|
Partial blocks are rounded up.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The default
|
|
.Tn CRC
|
|
used is based on the polynomial used for
|
|
.Tn CRC
|
|
error checking
|
|
in the networking standard
|
|
.St -iso8802-3 .
|
|
The
|
|
.Tn CRC
|
|
checksum encoding is defined by the generating polynomial:
|
|
.Bd -unfilled -offset indent
|
|
G(x) = x^32 + x^26 + x^23 + x^22 + x^16 + x^12 +
|
|
x^11 + x^10 + x^8 + x^7 + x^5 + x^4 + x^2 + x + 1
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Mathematically, the
|
|
.Tn CRC
|
|
value corresponding to a given file is defined by
|
|
the following procedure:
|
|
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar n
|
|
bits to be evaluated are considered to be the coefficients of a mod 2
|
|
polynomial M(x) of degree
|
|
.Ar n Ns \-1 .
|
|
These
|
|
.Ar n
|
|
bits are the bits from the file, with the most significant bit being the most
|
|
significant bit of the first octet of the file and the last bit being the least
|
|
significant bit of the last octet, padded with zero bits (if necessary) to
|
|
achieve an integral number of octets, followed by one or more octets
|
|
representing the length of the file as a binary value, least significant octet
|
|
first.
|
|
The smallest number of octets capable of representing this integer are used.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
M(x) is multiplied by x^32 (i.e., shifted left 32 bits) and divided by
|
|
G(x) using mod 2 division, producing a remainder R(x) of degree <= 31.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The coefficients of R(x) are considered to be a 32-bit sequence.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The bit sequence is complemented and the result is the CRC.
